The most famous mormon you've never heard of

This is a link to an interview with Aaron Eckhart. He is a actor who has been in a number of major films. The interview is interesting because the smug NPR interviewer gives him ever out to deny Mormonism but he doesn't.

The New Church Ad Campaign

The New church ad campaign


I would like to say that I think this campaign based around converts is excellent. It give the church of jesus Christ of latter day saints a human face. With the old "Isn't it about time" campaign was fun but I don't think it really said anything about the church. It basically said "we like cute kids" But who doesn't like cute kids. We might as well have run commercials of puppies running through fields.

These new commercials are of real people and real beliefs. The honesty comes through. It's harder to hate a real person or to deny the honesty in their voices.
